Salty Dog

Brad Strickland, Rick Duffield

Big Red Chair Books, 1997 - Juvenile Fiction - 140 pages

Ahoy! Buried treasure is always a good reason to dig up adventure!

There's treasure in Oakdale! To find it, Wishbone, Joe, Samantha and David must enter the condemned Trumbull Barn.

This reminds Wishbone of the high-seas tale Treasure Island, and Wishbone imagines himself as the orphaned Jim Hawkins who follows up a map to excitement-and treasure! Soon Jim finds himself face to face with dangerous pirates and the adventure of a lifetime.

Only a special breed of hero-one with canine courage and a nose for adventure-can tackle all this trouble!
